Tweaking a model costs less creating an entirely new one for a character who is basically irrelevant.

Nero didnt have a red coat. He had a red vest but his coat was a dark blue. Nero's energy was blue so

Nero's fighting style is exactly the same in 4 as in 5 (when it comes to swordplay.)

Vergil had his cocky moments as well. Nero even threw tantrums like Vergil did.

They shaved his head so that he was more of an individual. Vergil's hair was the same length as Dante's, just styled differently
